Chief Ye was silent as she was deep in her thought . "Your Highness, may I ask when did you contact the poison in your body?"
"It has been a while," Princess Lingchen said . Then she told the old lady how she fell into a pond and caught a high fever . They only found out about the poison when none of the physicians in the palace could detect what went wrong with her .
When Princess Lingchen finished, Chief Ye had a complicated look on her face . Judging from the Princess' pulse, it seemed that the poisonous bug had been implanted into her body longer than the princess thought .
"Then, do you mind telling me how you treat the poison when it attacks?"
The Crown Princess then told the older woman how her grandfather and Mingyue would previously counter the cold poison with acupuncture, heating her body and moxibustion . Chief Ye had a look of admiration when Princess Lingchen finished . She had never thought that those techniques would be able to suppress the cold bug . Whenever they encounter someone who encountered the bug, they would immediately kill it .

It seemed that the people around the Crown Princess were quite talented .
Chief Ye had previously heard about the Crown Princess' private physician's talent through her grandson, Wei Wei . She had then checked the suture the physician had made around Wei Wei's stomach area . The st.i.tches were neat, unlike what she had seen before . Chief Ye did not know anyone with such skills . It was regretful to know that the physician had vanished after the solar eclipse, or else, she would love to meet the physician .
However, it seemed that both the two physicians did not fully know of the nature of the poison . At least they did not know that a bug from the southern area caused the cold poison . When the physicians thought that the poison went dormant, it was the bug that went dormant . When the bug awakened, it would slowly release its venom, causing the Crown Princess to experience freezing cold all over her body .
"Chief Ye, Prince Lu Wei had previously mentioned that there was another way to cure this poison inside of me," Princess Lingchen spoke carefully . "Do you know how?"
The old lady's expression softened as she saw the anxious look on the Princess' face . "Of course . "
Princess Lingchen's eyes sparkled as she heard Chief's Ye respond . The Crown Princess glanced at Jiang Xiao Tian when she sensed that the man was looking at her . Princess Lingchen knew that Jiang Xiao Tian wanted to be careful as they did not know Prince Lu Wei and Chief Ye well . She also knew that there would not be another chance for her to recover from the poison except if they found another batch of Shadow Gra.s.s . But after Mingyue went missing, Princess Lingchen did not harbor her hope on finding the rare herb again .
"Can you help me?" Princess Lingchen asked .

"I can . " Chief Ye nodded .
Princess Lingchen felt her body trembled . She tried her best to control her emotion as she did not want to be too hopeful . This was not the first time she had heard that there was something to cure the poison inside her . But every time they come too close, she would get disappointed and suffer silently whenever the poison reacted .
"However, I have my condition . It was as my Wei Wei had told you previously . I cannot allow anyone else to stay around during the treatment process," Chief Ye said .
The Crown Princess had long expected that the old lady would give the same condition . However, there was something strange in Chief Ye's sentences just now . Princess Lingchen looked at the chief with a frown . "Wei Wei?"
Chief Ye glanced at the person next to her . "My grandchild, Wei Wei . "
Princess Lingchen glanced towards the prince and noticed him lowering his gaze . The tips of his ears turned red . The princess quickly connected the dots and figured out that the old lady was talking about Prince Lu Wei . She bit the inside of her cheek to stop herself from grinning with amus.e.m.e.nt .
"I can accept the condition," Princess Lingchen said to Chief Ye . "But can you tell me why you won't allow others to observe the procedure?"
"I'm afraid that you will be frightened by the way we used to treat the poison," Chief Ye said . She looked at Jiang Xiao Tian and continued . "Don't worry . This method will not be dangerous for the Crown Princess . " She looked at the princess and said, "You have helped my grandchild to stay alive . We are not a bunch of ungrateful people to return kindness with ingrat.i.tude . "
Jiang Xiao Tian smiled . But he was not a.s.sured by the old lady's words . "Chief Ye, isn't it better to let one of Her Highness attendant stay around? It's a good chance for us to learn the way to cure the poison . "
"Young man, if you wanted to learn the way to cure this poison, you will have to undergo a trial and live with my clan for at least ten years . Then, we will teach you everything we know," Chief Ye said .
"It's alright," Princess Lingchen said to Jiang Xiao Tian . Then she looked at the old lady and stood up . The Crown Princess clasped her hands and lowered her head . "Chief Ye . I hope you can cure the poison inside of me . I will accept your terms as long as it is within my capabilities . "
